Action of the city council tn approving purchase of an $11,000 site for a , recreation center and swimming pool is the first step in an expansion program that will require further popular approval if it is to be carried out. It has been estimated that $150,000 will be needed to develop the pool and center on this site, along with lesser work on certain other loca tions. This money is not now available. It will have to be voted, in the shape of tax levies or bond issues. All that has been done so far is to acquire the site, with money from the recreation reserves. This purchase will greatly deplete the reserve. Along with money for actual construction, it Is obvious that additional continuing levies will be necessary to finance operation of the ex panded program. In other words, the next steps will be to ask the people to vote $150,000 for construction and continuing levies of 3 or 4 mills for operation. The present half-mill levy for recre ation is inadequate for operation if we go into the bigger program. There has been a lot of talk here for several years to the effect that Klamath Falls, as a municipality, doesn't do enough for its youth. On the face of the situation presented now through the city recreation committee and the city council, we are going to have to decide how far we want to go along this line. These things cost money. News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON NEW YORK, June 5 Peace dealing with Russia has dropped to the level of what the press currently calls a debate. It is an unique debate, the internal side of which looks as devious as the wire coils of a motor which has been hacked with a knife. It sputters with the current on, but without much effect. Private information has come to me, for example, suggesting one of the large Russo American good neighbor organizations has taken steps to tamper with the jury and assure the result in favor of Russia. This organization has a committee assigned to the purpose of driving from the American rostrum, particular ly the radio, any person making adverse sug gestions, and promoting their own people surreptitiously, of course. The scalp of one nationally known radio commentator already is accredited by my in formants to the undercover work of this special committee. How it influences the Crossley or other ratings of the radio trade, I do not yet precisely know, but by fan letter attacks upon sponsors they apparently achieved their goal in one notable instance. They can also organize a fan campaign of impressive pro BOYLE'S NOTEBOOK Br HAL BOYLE BASEL, Switzerland, June 5 (VP) This is the "golden gate" to Switzerland a gate that is swung wide open to the world. They call it the "golden gate" 'because it is the trade center leading into the heart of the biggest little country in Europe and it plays a steady tune for the Swiss national cash register. It is a wonderful introduction to the storied small land that the war forgot a country that has made a paying business out of hospitality. More than a quarter million American soldiers have visited Switzerland on leave since the end of the European war and right now the Swiss government is bending every pretzel to re capture its peacetime tourist in dustry. Better Than Home An American here is more privileged than in his own coun try. He can eat better and sleep better. If he wants anything from steak to silk stockings it is here for the money. The only hitch is that the American dol lar enjoys no extra purchasing value as it does in France and Italy. The Swiss franc is the soundest and most sought-after currency in Europe. Food is rationed but there is no real lack of anything except coal. Even Sweden, the land of northern plenty, seems pinched compared to the abundance vis ible in Switzerland. The Swiss are extremely civic conscious and go in heavily for WEDNESDAY EVE. JUNE 5 KFLW 1450 kc. KFJI 1240 kc. Lyle Van MBS Around Town" Spotlight Bandi MBS i;00Th.

Less Success in Newspapers WITH the newspapers, they huve been less successful, I am told. One of the first tilings an editor learns from experience is to spot synthetic fan propaganda of this type, which has long been used commercially by press agents, but never organized in such an extensive and calculating long term campaign manner to influence American consideration of foreign affairs. In the magazine field, their influence also has been judged by Investigators to be rather important, but upon the super sensitive radio they have done their best scuttling. Now if Russia, through joint-friendly outfits in this country, is able to banish unsatisfactory (to her) comment from the air and influence the presentation of opinion there, in newspapers or magazines, it can win the argument between Messrs. Byrnes and Molotov by the simple process of undermining the public support of Mr. Byrnes in his own country. I have per sonally encountered some evidence lately not ing the surge of activity on this hidden section of the debating front, and have one instance which may be aired later. However, I think the official eye in Washington has lately been put upon the situation. The debate is developing peculiarities in other respects. The Russian state papers, Izvcstia, Pravda and others, are carrying on what has the superficial appearance of a democratic de bate, but is in reality not an advocacy of any thing, only a continuous attack upon Byrnes, Republican Senator Vandenbcrg and the Amer ican position. Izvestia, for instance, says the United States is violating the Potsdam agree ment by not dismantling German factories and taking them as reparations, as the Russians have. Everyone knows the United States does not need machines. I monlht .4 M MOO EPLET 1 Misleading Accusations THE only reparations we took were external assets. Other allied nations were supposed to get minor allotments but they have made no complaint. Izvestia also charges the United States proposal for German disarmament was not genuine because it rested upon German consent which is another political excuse. Such misleading accusations may cause little damage in this country, where they can be exposed, but the Russian people will get no other information about the matter. If this keeps on day after day they will really come to believe the Moscow line that we are liars and deceivers and seeking war. They could hardly be expected to come to any other de cision in a "debate" like this. The Russian-state-press attacks thus consti tute the only visible agitation which could lead to war the preparation of the minds of their people with strained conceptions and misin terpretations. They are rousing their people. This is the only familiar threat to the making of peace yet visible. The Russians have also long been conscious of other means of propaganda than the spoken , and written word in "debates." They are not unaccustomed to timing their developments. In this connection it is notable that our maritime strike, which the AFL longshoremen's leader, Joseph P. Ryan has called "a political strike to turn over the shipping industry to Russia," was set to start June 15, the same day as the council of foreign ministers meeting in Paris to talk again about peace. In view of these circumstances, it is diffi cult to ascertain what kind of a "debate" this is going to turn out to be. culture as well as commerce. For instance, Basel, a town of 170,000 population, has an art museum which would be the boast of any American metrop olis 10 times its size. It is an incredibly neat and clean town always at its Sun day best situated on hills over looking the Rhine river. There has, been a settlement here since Roman times, but Basel first gained business importance in 1225, when Bishop Heinrich von Thun built a bridge across the river and thus made the town the economic key to the whole area. Heavy Commercial Traffic One-third of all trade traffic in and out of Switzerland passes through Basel, either by barge along the Rhine or by rail. Silk ribbon manufacture used to be the main industry here, but then you girls started wear ing your hair short and Basel had to switch to another indus try chemicals. Large quanti ties of DDT are now manufac tured here, and the city is try ing to replace bombed out Leip zig as Europe's leather and fur center. The Swiss are a nation of four languages. Here they speak a German dialect of which they are so fiercely proud that when the nazis from across the border addressed them in high German they would blandly reply: "I don't understand you."

(To the Editor): May more power be bestowed upon this organization whose motives are based upon love regard for unfortunate men. The alcoholic slave must first revive his love for him self, regain his self-respect, just as the sinner must first open his heart and make himself re ceptive before Christ will enter in. The foundation of Chris tianity is love and service, not religious sects or creeds; al though some religionists think ing that ritual is the only suit able thread, spin a cocoon around themselves and expect to find eternal life therein. Christ's parable of the man who fell amongst thieves is sym bolic. Hatred, indifference breed destruction, but love is construc tive. May multitudes of drunk ards live until they can say: "God, using Alcoholics Anony mous saved me from a drunk ards' grave and by the power of Jesus Christ raised me from spiritual death to be a dear son, and worker for Him."

Plans are getting under way for a YMCA organization here in Klamath Falls, and if ever a town needed such an organiza tion this is it. It might be an idea for the board when they get started on final plans to keep in mind the new municipal rec reation center and see if the two can't be made to fit together some way. After a day like yesterday I sometimes wonder if there will i be any soil left in the Klamath i basin in a few more years. If there's as much dirt deposited in everyone else's house as there is in mine, or as much in every office as there is at the Herald, it would seem that everything to the south of here would be down to bedrock.

Greyhound Ad To Feature KF The tourist committee of the chamber of commerce yesterday received a request from an ad vertising agency on behalf of Pacific Greyhound for aid in drawing up an advertisement featuring Klamath Falls as a tourist attraction. The request was for informa tion of general interest to the tourist trade about Klamath Falls and for pictures, and the material will be made available to the advertising agency. A report summarizing a gen eral course of training in han dling the traveling public, mak ing use of picture slides, was presented at the tourist commit tee meeting by Hal Shldler. lo cal businessman. The committee also discussed a proposal to have speakers talk to the various ser vice clubs next week, which has been designated Oregon Tourist week, stressing the importance of the tourist Industry.
